I had a mastectomy on 1/13/11 at MD Anderson in Houston.Unfortunately, nodes were positive.Not sure how many yet. Follow up is in 2 weeks. This is one more hurdle to get through but I am ready to keep keeping on. Next radiation and possibly more chemo(16 doses completed before surgery). Anyway so far pain is not bad but a lot of soreness and chest tightness.

    Glad that you did well with the surgery. My sister did chemo before her surgery and then more chemo after,then radiation, and Herceptin for 9 months and arimidex. It is 3 years since she was diagnosed and she is doing well. I will keep you in my prayers that you do well also.
